Kylian Mbappé reveals he will be leaving PSG.
Kylian Mbappé is set to play his last game for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) at the Parc des Princes on Sunday, marking the end of his seven-year-long journey with the club. The French striker confirmed his departure through an emotional social media post, although the specifics of his next destination are yet to be revealed.
The rumors of Mbappé's departure have been circulating for several months, but his broadcast was the first time he directly addressed the situation. "I feel the need to let you all know that this is my last year at PSG. I will not be renewing my contract. This adventure will come to an end in a few weeks," Mbappé shared in a nearly four-minute video on social media. While there have been whispers about his potential move to Real Madrid, no official confirmation has been made.
Despite holding no significant weight in the league standings, Mbappé's final match on Sunday will hold an emotional significance for fans as he faces off against FC Toulouse. PSG already crowned league champions, and their hopes of securing a Champions League triumph were dashed after their semi-final defeat to Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday. The 25-year-old will depart the club labeled as one of the most valuable players in the world, leaving the Qatari-backed team on a free transfer.
Carrying "a lot of emotions" within him, Mbappé reflected on his time at the club, stating that he had grown as a player alongside "some of the best in soccer history," such as Lionel Messi and Neymar. Although he has no regrets, he believes it's time for a "new challenge." To date, Mbappé has played 306 games for PSG, scoring 255 goals and claiming six French championship titles.
